Re: 765T BlueTooth

scorpioe, my wife informs me that I've spent enough time on this website, and it's time to go sweat out in the hot sun punching through the "honey do" list - so I can't do any research for you right now. But the short answer is that if your cell phone is capable of using a wired headset, then you should be able to find a Bluetooth module that connects to that port and transmits the signal. I think Motorola has one, and I'm sure there are others. What make & model cell phone are you trying to connect? Also, the cost of the Bluetooth adapter might be a long ways towards purchasing a new phone (with 2 year contract), so unless you really love that phone, you might also weigh the benefits of upgrading your phone....

Thanks for taking time to reply. I would dump the phone in a heart beat BUT
I am getting it free service from my company. I am flying under the radar if you know what I mean *LOL*

I'll try to hook up my wife's phone to see what happens.

Thanks for taking time to read my request and sending a reply

Re: 765T BlueTooth

HHmm have to cehcek the model.. The phone is NOT blue tooth capable but there is an adapter that plugs into the headset port on the phone. This allows rthe phone to connect to the headset.
It should work but I can not get the phone and Garmin to pair.

scorpioe, do you still need help with this? Or have you gotten your Bluetooth adapter to work?
